Patient care was excellent. Have 3 more appointments scheduled and will have a better "feel" at that time. The only downside of the visit is the paperwork required. I would suggest that more of the standard forms be online for patients to fill out and print out or forward prior to visit. Quality of information and legibility should be better and patient could sign when they arrive at office.

My insurance wasn't verified before I arrived after providing all the information then ending up having to come back the next day. They got the diagnosis code wrong when I went there strictly for a yearly routine screening which was 100% paid by Ins. and I ending up having to pay out of pocket because they wouldn't change the code for insurance. They said Doctor doesn't perform routine screening! Why wasn't I told this up front during registration this was the reason for the visit. I don't recommend this place!!
